ahoy, i've been reading here since i started vaping a few months ago, but this is my first post. i've spent a fair amount of money trying to figure out what's best for me, and i could use some help finalizing my setup without spending too much more.
i'm using a 50/50 tobacco flavor from wordup, in a g5 510 clearomizer with a 400 mAh vision spinner and a cone. my sweet spot is 3.5-3.8 volts with a 2.2 ohm g5. what i'm looking for is a clearomizer that vapes like the g5, but isn't so fragile.
the problem is that the top of the tube cracks. the first one cracked straight down from the top about 1/8 inch, from being in my pocket i guess, and the crack extended to about a half inch when i dropped it 2 feet onto concrete. after that i got a small tube to slip it into when in my pocket, so the tip doesn't get touched. i also wrapped a small piece of clear tape around the top of the tube to strengthen it. this has helped a little. without the tape, it starts to crack within 4 or 5 days, and once the crack is about 1/4 inch long, it's garbage because the tip won't seal good anymore. with the tape, it's good for 8 or 9 days, then several smaller cracks start to form, but grow slowly. i can get about 2-3 weeks out of it. i don't really need a clearomizer to last longer than that if its cheap, but i don't want to have to be super careful or mess with taping each one.
the only other clearomizer i tried was the vivi nova slim, and i hated it. the vapor was cold and very airy. i tried putting the tip from a g5 on it, and that helped a little with the airyness by restricting the draw a bit, but it was still cold. the flavor also sucked, but it did have a good throat hit. the g5 on the other hand is warm, great flavor and perfect throat hit every time.
i don't think that reading the descriptions of a hundred clearomizers will be much help, and i don't put a whole lot of stock in reviews anymore, since everyone has different taste, and it seems that i don't like what lots of others do like (vivi nova). i'm hoping that someone with more experience can offer some suggestions. i want something decently sturdy, warm, slow draw, and not huge. the vision nano and v2 clearomizers look interesting, and so does the ce4, but i think any of them will still be a crap shoot.
thanks for any help you folks can offer.
